Mapping Civilian Deaths in Syria

Middle East Monitor has released an interactive map to visualize the number of civilian deaths in each region of Syria. The map is accompanied by charts showing how many civilian deaths have been caused by the various forces operating in the country and how many attacks these forces are responsible for on medical facilities and personnel.

The Middle East Monitor Interactive Map of Syria uses data from the Syrian Network for Human Rights, Physicians for Human Rights, the United Nations, the SAMS Foundation and airwars.org. As well as showing the number of civilian deaths in each region in Syria the map allows you to view the locations of chemical attacks, where medical workers have been killed, the number of internally displaced people and the locations & numbers of coalition airstrike attacks.
